Back in the day before podcasts, my pre-teen ritual was sitting up late at night to catch Loveline on the radio with Dr. Drew and Adam Carolla. They'd banter about weird and wild sex stories from callers and guests, and I probably learned way more about getting it on from that program than from my friends, family, and sex ed classes combined. Funny as it was, though, it was very dude-driven, and I always wanted the same raunchy conversation to be a little more tailored to the ladies. Now that women are finally owning the sex-positive podcast game, my wish has finally come true. In 2015 you can hear shameless discussions about sex, dating, and relationships from a female perspective whenever and wherever — and thanks to the Internet, hosts can say screw you to the censors and get as NSFW as they please.

1. Guys We Fucked

Guys We Fucked: The Anti-Slut Shaming Podcast has been getting a lot of love lately. Stand-up comedians Corinne Fisher and Krystyna Hutchinson launched their no-holds-barred podcast about a year ago, where they feature special guests, discuss relevant news stories, and open up about their own sex and love lives. On each show the duo tackle fun topics like “do the kids still 69?” or delve into more existential questions like “do you have sex to fill a void”? What's so charming about these New York City-based women is their ability to make fun of themselves (they are comics, after all) and how open they are about what they don’t know.

2. Sex Out Loud

O.G. Sex positive writer, educator, and feminist pornographer Tristan Taormino has been hosting Sex Out Loud since 2012. The show explores every angle of sexuality, from the philosophical and the political to the down and dirty. Her podcast is your one-stop-shop for discussions about kink, non-monogamy, anal sex, trans rights, orgy etiquette, queer porn and more. Taormino also features guests like Margaret Cho, Dan Savage, and Dr. Joycelyn Elders (the only official government supporter of masturbation ever!) to join in her frank and incisive discussions about sex.

3. Lunch With Legs

Lunch With Legs is a podcast run by New York City burlesque diva Legs Malone, who invites sexperts, artists, drag queens, and performers of all kinds on her show to discuss their lives and loves and predilections. You can listen to burlesque dancers talk shop, learn about the ins and outs of polyamory from a practicing couple, or even hear a classic tale read in a sultry voice by a lovely lady. Malone also goes deep with discussions of racial politics, cultural appropriation, and spiritual healing in her many captivating episodes.

4. Sex Nerd Sandra

For those who need a little science with their sex, Sex Nerd Sandra "punches sexual shame in the face," as host and sexuality educator Sandra Daugherty puts it. Her podcast has on everyone from porn stars to PhD's who chat about important things like the function of female beauty in society or the biology behind your sex drive and the history of hookup culture. The podcast also explores taboo topics like golden showers or rope bondage that can enlighten and entertain even the most seasoned sexual explorers.

5. The Kinsey Confidential

The Kinsey Confidential Podcast is your go-to for sexual Q&A's. Hosted by Dr. Debby Herbenick, Associate Director of the Center for Sexual Health Promotion at Indiana University, each episode answers questions like "I am with a man, but had a dream with a woman, why?" or "After sex, I feel very sore. Why is this? Can I avoid this?" or "As a short man, am I expected to be submissive or 'the girl?'" Herbenick responds to these questions with clear, practical advice and the facts to back it up.
